If you want to amuse yourself and be occasionally disheartened at the same time, few things beat entering the beginning of a question into Google and seeing how it auto-completes your search, thereby indicating what the most asked question on that topic actually is. For instance, if you type in “Why do clowns…”, Google adds the word “exist?” It’s funny because you probably wondered it, it’s sad because clowns just want you to be happy and most of you seem not to want them in the world. (The next most-Googled queries, for what it’s worth, are “Why do clowns wear afros?”, “Why do clowns kill?”, and “Why do clowns attack?”)
In a video for Wired magazine, most of the principal cast members of the newest Star Wars movie, Rogue One, decided to shake up the Google results by actually answering and putting to rest the questions that are most asked about them. The most obvious takeaway is that people doing internet searches actually believe that two different celebrities can be the same person, especially Felicity Jones, who must answer whether or not she is also Eddie Redmayne AND Zooey Deschanel. We also learn that Riz Ahmed thinks in very existential terms—asked why Rogue One has different characters, he take it not as a query as to why Finn and Rey aren’t in the movie, but why it doesn’t simply have one character who remains the same.
As a bonus, you get to see Donnie Yen’s lower back tattoo (it’s not a butterfly), and hear Alan Tudyk argue that Darth Vader is a Jedi. What do Diego Luna and Ben Mendelsohn reveal? You’ll just have to watch the video above.
Have all your non-spoiler burning questions been answered yet? Let’s start some new questions trending in comments below, and maybe the cast will come back for another round when the home video release happens.
